The biggest shock of the year unfolded at UFC 331.

Gable Steveson was the prodigy. The man to take the crown from Jon Jones and make his own case for being the greatest fighter of all time. True wrestling pedigree: an Olympic gold medalist. Not only that, but Steveson has showcased the power in his hands. Well, it was Sean Sharaf who produced the knockout punch on Saturday night. It took just 12 seconds for Sharaf to win his first bout under the UFC banner, and it couldn’t have been bigger.

A salty Steveson didn’t stay around for Bruce Buffer to announce the winner, exiting the cage early. An emotional Sean Sharaf celebrated a life-altering victory that will likely see him taking home an extra $100k once the event bonuses are announced.
